The Debra Kizer Legacy Scholarship

In Loving Memory of a Remarkable Mother, Mentor, and Supporter

The Debra Kizer Legacy Scholarship was established to honor the life and memory of Debra Kizer—a loving mother, steadfast encourager, and guiding light whose unwavering support and wisdom laid the foundation for her child’s success. Debra believed in the power of education, perseverance, and faith, and she instilled those values every day through her words, actions, and unconditional love.


This scholarship celebrates her legacy by supporting students who embody resilience, determination, and a commitment to achieving their goals—just as Debra encouraged her own child to do. Though she is no longer with us in body, her spirit continues to inspire and uplift.


Eligibility Criteria:

  • Open to students who demonstrate academic dedication and a strong desire to overcome personal or educational challenges.

  • Must provide a brief explanation of their financial need and how this scholarship would support their child’s educational goals.
